Needle roller thrust ball bearings combine a needle roller bearing with a thrust ball bearing to form a space-saving unit. This combination enables high radial loads and axial forces in one or both directions to be absorbed simultaneously.
The needle roller radial guide provides high load carrying capacity with minimal installation space, while the thrust bearing ensures precise axial support. The design is compact, easy to install and ideal for applications with changing load directions or limited installation conditions.
Typical areas of application are gearboxes, machine tools, pumps or coupling systems where precise guidance, high load capacity and long service life are required in confined spaces.
